Dreading ss13 visit this weekend and so is he

Tx mommy of 3's picture

So this is dh weekend to have ss. Tues, dh was talking to ss and reminded him that he's picking him up this weekend. Ss was surprised like he didn't know and sounded like he already had plans for this weekend. Weds, dh missed a call from bm but she didn't leave a msg so he didn't think it was necessary to call back. Thursday, dh receives an email from bm. She said she didn't realize it was dh's weekend and planned on taking ss to a birthday party that happens to be in our town. She asked if dh would let her pick up ss for a 'few hours' on Sat but if not then it was ok.

Husband calls his daughter last night and of course no one answers..so he calls cell phone and it rings and rings and finally BM picks up and hangs up..this goes on 4 times..finally an hour after this my husband calls again and BM picks up and says sorry the phone got cut off..we are in the clinic as my SD seems broke her hand or finger or something..and then BM hangs up..so frustrating..

BF had a Wii he had bought for the skids before we met. When we all moved in together (2 1/2 yrs ago) i have only seen it about 3 times - SD12 takes it & keeps it at BM's. SS14 has purchased an Xbox with his own $ and could care less about the Wii (the girls are not allowed to touch HIS xbox) my BD11 has wanted animal crossing for a year & a half. Last Christmas BF said to buy it for BD11 & i said we didn't have a Wii. BF said yes we do.

My poor mother

Ok so my SD is an alcoholic. He almost killed my brother (biological) during a drunken rage by choking him to the point the blood vessels in his eyes ruptured and his neck was bruised. It took my mother and HB and HS to pull him off my brother. My HB and HS were 10 and 8. Once he was released he just ran. I got the call after work and rushed towards where he was walking. I drove past a hospital thinking we should go and my mother(a nurse) said if we go to the hospital SD could get arrested. My brother decided not to go.

Guilty much?

I blogged that bm wanted ss15 to live with us b/c he and bm couldn't get along. Anyway she changed her mind but I knew she would.

Fast ward to last night bm texted dh saying she HAD to buy ss15 a pair of $130 shoes.

this is how it went--

BM: I HAD to buy ss15 a pair of $130 shoes today.

DH: WHY?

BM: Ss15 IS a jock now and he HAS an image to up hold!

Dh: What? That is so stupid. He has a good pair of shoes and nothing wrong with them.

BM: Can you pay for half?

History

I realised that while I have been giving everyone a blow by blow of what has gone on this week, I never posted a history behind all of family. DH and I were married almost 4 years ago. We met through a blind date set up by of all people, his mother. We clicked and dated for a year and a half then got married.

Updates updates updates... and some seriously pissed off skids!

Sorry I did not update last evening, it was a busy night at the house.

I came home to my entire house clean, and my FIL standing outside directing the skids on how to clean gutters and wash a house. Apparently he ran out of things inside for them to clean. I went in to start making dinner for everyone and skid#1 showed up wanting to know if she could help. Otherwise known as she wanted to not clean gutters and cook instead, less labor intensive apparently. I told her to ask her pawpaw and if he said it was ok, then fine. Nope. She went back to cleaning gutters.
